I created this layout from a Pink Paislee Page Kit called 'Fancy Free Heart' that I found (at half-price) at a well known high street craft store. I bought it because it contained several elements to complete a layout including a sheet of 12x12 patterned paper, die-cut heart shape, die-cut phrase and embellishments. I added a sheet of cardstock to give the page a border.

This is my take on a Facebook post by American Crafts, where they used strips of left-over patterned paper and turned it into a scrapbook page.

I took left over pieces of patterned paper from previous Mad Scrappers Kits and other projects and came up with this layout. I used patterned paper pieces from Kaisercraft Ubud Dreams, Bo Bunny Aryia's Garden, Echo Park Everyday Memories and Kaisercraft Party Time range. All I added was a sheet of Bazzill Avalanche cardstock and some Kaisercraft Washi Tape (also from a previous kit) and added the off-cuts in strips. All other embellishments are from my own stash.

Good morning scrappers! It's NSD today and that means get your papers, glue, embellishments etc., and lets get scrapping.Here on the blog I have the instructions for the 'Girls Only' layout created with the Mad Scrappers March Kit. The kit contains patterned papers from Echo Park 'Just Be You' range, Mint/Teal coordinating solid, Bazzill white cardstock and Kaisercraft Mint Pinstripe Tape. Over on my FB page I have instructions for the 'Cherish' layout.

Instructions: Use the Mint/Teal solid paper as the base (gut out the middle to use for matting etc.) Cut 'Follow your Heart' patterned paper to 11 1/2" x 11 1/2" approx., and add mint pinstripe tape to corners and attach to base as shown:

Add to layout as shown, using FOAM tape to add dimension. Use a black pen to add faux stitching around the outside of the heart shape and add title to finish.

The chipboard letters are NOT part of the kit but can be purchased from The Scrapbook Garden HERE. I would love to see your take on this layout. Leave a photo on this blog post or on the FB page (link on left of page). Happy scrapping.

This is one of the layouts I created using this month's Mad Scrappers kit. The kit contains gorgeous gold foiled patterned papers from MME 'In Bloom' range, coordinating cardstock and a 6x12 sticker sheet from the same range.

The wooden embellishments are from The Works (cost just £1 pack) and I painted them with some gold DecoArt Fluid Acrylic paint. Looking forward to seeing all the Mad Scrappers next Wednesday evening.
